for months -- wifey was asking me to put a real functional porthole window in our front door !!
![Laugh Out Loud](http://www.kittmaster.com/emo/smilielol5.gif)
well, many of us , like me, can become very adept at the stall mode when we dont like an idea
i thought it would be horrendous looking.
anyhow -- you know how they can get
so - finally - for last nights gift -- i got a heavy duty glass/brass/bronze real marine porthole kit--and popped that little sucker in.
from the inside/out view -- she was 100% right-
it looks awesome-
but from the outside/in view.............
it gives the local robbers a clear preview of their 'personal favs'
LOL....nice
Nice view!!

-thats correct floyd --and amazing you could know that.
hey ramon --what fits perfectly over the glass is a hitachi woofer
![Smile](http://community.groupee.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif)
yep its the very distinct chrome mic cover and those beautiful one of a kind tweeter grills that gave it away.
Very cool !!!!

Hang a picture of a pitbull's face on the inside when you're away

I would let her have her way too, my wife makes me keep my bbx's in the dungeon (basement).
At least you have a nice stand in the living room

well --neither are a big deal --soundwise-
definitely ok , though
![Smile](http://community.groupee.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif)
There was a bolt box on ebay a couple weeks ago, is it that one? The bidding was getting to high for me, would of liked to had it tho
![Big Grin](http://community.groupee.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif)
Johnny
nope --this one did come from ebay -- but, a few years ago --
there are at least a few other AKAs of these bolt boxes --and some variations.
I love the look of the bolt box

Hey, Ira, I dig the new porthole you have! I'm sure it adds quite the nautical feel to the house.
Good thing you didn't install a cornhole.
![Laugh Out Loud](http://www.kittmaster.com/emo/smilielol5.gif)
cornhole going in the back door

Do you need TP for your bunghole?!?!?
![Laugh Out Loud](http://www.kittmaster.com/emo/smilielol5.gif)
Great shots, Ira! Very cool!
Lets just hope your ship never sinks in a storm!!!!
Well at least you have better view of the person knocking at your door!
![Big Grin](http://community.groupee.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif)
ford -- yup -its about the diameter of a round robbers face
JT --think i need a tripod for night shots -- right ??
ok -- problem0 !!
here is the opposite view = inside out ,
and have discovered the fubar part --
using wide angle --we can get the full porthole effect - but the chicks are too tiny
but when we zoom in -- we lose the entire porthole --so what possible good is this :
![Smile](http://community.groupee.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif)
i had been concerned to open and view this thread as i had misread it instead as satans porthole.
i can see tho ira you have only been using santas porthole for the betterment of mankind.
it is a pretty cool porthole.
do you guys think i will/can be arrested for this porthole/peephole photography ??
![Smile](http://community.groupee.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif)
do they have s2g access in prisons ??
its worth 30 days -- but no more than that
![Laugh Out Loud](http://www.kittmaster.com/emo/smilielol5.gif)
dont got to prison ira you would not to be released with parts of your anatomy resembling that porthole would you.
![Laugh Out Loud](http://www.kittmaster.com/emo/smilielol5.gif)
well bill --these kids wont run me in
they ALL know me and my teenage son --and now that the 'words out' about our new porthole --
they will EXPECT me to be hiding by it with the camera -- and will be insulted if they dont get in a cool picture !! really
so - the bigger problem is all their fathers know me too

Hey...just got to thinking...maybe now you can get a pic of your postal girl from your thread in OT:
"my US Postal girl --puts out"
I myself would love to have a face to go with her "postal girl" name

does any member here really KNOW optics and lenses ?
to make the porthole shots worthwhile --it needs a constant wide angle lens with a built in a variable zoom --
and that might not exist ??
wifey is now less thrilled with 'her' porthole gift
claims hubby is not using it correctly
----------------------
but --the zoom lens eliminates the porthole-
so who needs it, anyway ??

I think Ira is ASKING for trouble more than anything else...especially if the wife sees the pics of the hotties above

wifey and one of my daughters DID see all these pictures --and responded with the usual :
"WE HATE YOUR GUTS"
(no biggie)
Sit down and eat your cake.
UE -- if nobody else asks me 'how she sounds' ?
( the last picture)
you do it !!
thank you
